by lspeed | Feb 8, 2026 | RESTAURANT BUSINESS: BEHIND THE KITCHEN DOOR
We all know that running a restaurant is not just an exercise in cooking food and hoping for the best. It is, and always has been, a careful balancing act between heat and heart, discipline and diplomacy, spreadsheets and human emotion. All performed while something is on fire, plates drop and shatter on the floor, and someone wants their steak cooked differently than they had ordered it.
Traditionally, success in the restaurant business rests on two pillars – hard skills and soft skills. Recently, however, a third participant has pulled up a chair at the table – Artificial Intelligence. It does not get tired or cranky, it does not call in sick, and it never forgets to update a spreadsheet. On the other hand, it does not understand sarcasm or irony, or why tonight guests suddenly all want their dessert at the same time.
Hard skills are the visible, tangible backbone of hospitality. They include knife work, serving procedures and standards, cooking temperatures, food safety, cost control, purchasing systems, inventory management, shift scheduling, and the ability to tell the difference between actual profit and a very optimistic interpretation of it.
These skills are measurable, teachable, and brutally unforgiving. A steak cooked badly will not be rescued by a charming smile, and a kitchen that does not respect hygiene will eventually be introduced to the health inspector in a very personal way.
For many hospitality careers, hard skills are where everything begins. You learn the craft, you repeat it endlessly, and you develop respect for standards, process, and precision. This foundation matters because restaurants are physical businesses. Plates are heavy, heat is real, time moves fast, and service does not pause for reflection. No amount of inspirational leadership will save a service if the basics are missing or misunderstood.
Soft skills arrive quietly, but then dominate everything. Communication, leadership, empathy, conflict management, and the ability to read a room or that difficult corner table without needing a spreadsheet all fall into this category. They are what determines whether a team functions under pressure, or dissolves into passive aggressive silence during a busy service. Handling a guest complaint without turning it into a three act tragedy, motivating a tired team without sounding like a motivational podcast, and knowing when to listen rather than speak are all very real operational skills, even if they do not appear on a checklist.
Experienced restaurateurs know that and the painful truth it brings. People rarely leave restaurants because of long hours or hard work. They leave because of poor leadership, unclear systems, or environments where being human feels inconvenient. Soft skills turn a workplace into a team, and a meal into an experience worth repeating. Unfortunately, they are often only appreciated once they are missing.
Enter AI and its growing league of protagonists, confidently promising to fix everything from scheduling to menu pricing, preferably before lunch. Artificial intelligence is excellent at recognising patterns, forecasting demand, optimising rosters, tracking food cost anomalies, and producing reports that look very convincing in meetings. Used properly, it removes repetitive tasks, flags problems early, and gives managers more time to manage people rather than wrestle with spreadsheets at midnight.
What AI does not do particularly well is sense that stern tension in a kitchen, notice when a young cook is quietly losing confidence, or read a guest’s expression when something feels off. Data can explain what is happening, but judgement is still required to decide what it means, and that judgement remains stubbornly human.
The real risk is not AI replacing people, but data replacing thinking. Restaurants are not factories, they are emotional, noisy, unpredictable ecosystems where timing, mood, and relationships matter as much as numbers. AI works best as a cleverly placed support act, not as the headliner.
So what ultimately wins – hard skills, soft skills, or AI? The only viable answer is all three, applied in the right order and definitely with a sense of proportion. Hard skills create credibility, soft skills create culture, and AI creates leverage. A restaurant run only on charm will fail politely, one run only on technique will eventually burn out its people, and one run purely by algorithms will feel efficient but soulless and Kafkaesque.
Future restaurant leaders need to master and understand the craft, lead people with empathy, and use technology without surrendering judgement. They need to know when to trust the data, when to trust their instincts, and when to ignore both and simply walk the floor and observe the room.
Guests may come for the food, but they return for how they felt. And no algorithm has quite figured that out – yet.

by lspeed | Feb 1, 2026 | KNOWLEDGE: MEAT ESSENTIALS
Walk into a steakhouse anywhere in the world, and you will hear familiar promises about premium beef, careful sourcing, and steaks cooked to perfection every single time. What is far less visible, but far more important, is what happened to that beef long before it ever reached the grill and landed on a guest’s plate. Here are the facts:
In professional steak kitchens there are three very different supply chains at work, namely frozen beef, deep chilled beef, and truly fresh beef. While they may sound a bit similar, the stark differences become obvious once heat, time, and expectation enter the equation.
Frozen Beef
This version is far more common than most diners realise. Freezing is not automatically a crime against meat. It is a practical logistics tool that allows beef to travel long distances, while offering distributors and restaurants predictable supply and stable pricing. Beef is usually frozen shortly after slaughter and stored at very low temperatures for an extremely long time, sometimes for years. This doesn’t break any rules as such, as long as the paperwork, handling, and temperature logs are in order.
The problems appear after thawing and grilling, when physics other than marketing takes over. During freezing, ice crystals form inside the muscle fibres, and those crystals impact the internal structure of the meat. Once the steak hits the grill, and depending how exactly it was thawed, this impact often reveals itself in an unflattering way.
Previously frozen beef frequently releases excess water onto the plate after cooking, which dilutes flavour, cools the steak faster than intended, and can look genuinely unappealing on a guest’s plate. Especially when a steak should be resting confidently, rather than sitting in a shallow puddle. Even when cooked carefully, the texture often feels looser and less resilient under the knife, with a slightly grainy bite that no amount of seasoning can fully disguise.
Deep Chilled Beef
Deep chilled beef operates on a different principle and demands a much higher level of discipline throughout the supply chain. Instead of being fully frozen, the meat is kept just around freezing point under tightly controlled temperature and humidity conditions. This slows bacterial growth dramatically while still allowing natural enzymatic ageing to take place. Meaning the beef continues to develop tenderness and flavour in a controlled and largely predictable way.
There is no pause button in this system. Deep chilled beef has a ticking clock, and depending on the program, the cut, and the breed, it must be served within weeks or a few months at most. That forces accuracy and honesty at every stage, from slaughter dates to shipping schedules to cold storage management. When handled properly, the reward is beef with a cleaner, more focused flavour and a texture that is tender yet lively, offering resistance before yielding, which is exactly what most steak lovers subconsciously expect when they order a serious cut of beef.
From a cooking perspective, deep chilled beef behaves better on the grill. Moisture loss is more controlled, browning is more even, and the meat responds more predictably to heat. From a guest perspective, the eating experience feels more complete, with flavour depth, juiciness, and structure working together rather than fighting each other.
Fresh Beef
Fresh beef is often misunderstood and romanticised, especially in markets where freshness is equated with quality by default. Fresh beef usually means meat that has undergone little to no meaningful ageing beyond a very short rest after slaughter. While this may sound appealing and “natural”, the reality on the plate is often more challenging for chefs and diners alike.
Without sufficient ageing, muscle fibres remain tight, which frequently results in beef that is noticeably firmer and less tender, even when cooked with care. Flavour development is also limited, as ageing is one of the key processes that builds savoury complexity in beef. Fresh beef can taste clean, but it often tastes shallow, lacking the depth and rounded character that most guests expect from a steakhouse steak. For diners, this can translate into a steak that feels harder to chew and less expressive, even though nothing is technically wrong with the product.
Fresh beef also introduces a higher level of inconsistency in a professional kitchen. Small variations in animal stress, slaughter conditions, and handling become far more obvious without the buffering effect of ageing. While fresh beef has its place in certain culinary traditions, it is rarely ideal for a classic steakhouse setting where tenderness, flavour, and predictability all matter at the same time.
Our Exclusive Choice
At Churrasco Phuket Steakhouse we made a clear decision many years ago to never serve previously frozen beef. This is not because freezing is inherently bad, but because it does not align with the top level experience we want to deliver to our guests. We work exclusively with deep chilled beef suppliers and programs that respect ageing, flavour development, and proper handling from start to finish.
After many years of working with serious volumes of beef, you develop a practical sense for these differences that goes far beyond labels and certificates. The feel of the muscle, the smell when a vacuum bag is opened, and the way the surface reacts to heat all tell a story. Occasionally a supplier will try to “bend the rules”, usually gently and often with a convincing explanation attached, but those stories rarely survive close inspection.
Keep in mind that beef remembers its past. Whether it was frozen, rushed, or patiently aged will always show up eventually, and on a hot grill and a guest’s plate. Just like most everything else, the truth has a habit of revealing itself eventually.

by lspeed | Jan 25, 2026 | DECODING GRAPES: FROM VINES TO VINTAGE
Koshu is one of those grapes that politely ignores everything the global wine market expects it to do. It has been grown in Japan for close to a thousand years, mainly in Yamanashi Prefecture at the foothills of Mount Fuji, and it has no interest whatsoever in being mistaken for Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, or anything else you may recognise.
From a technical standpoint, we can clear one thing up immediately. Yes, Koshu is a white wine. It is vinified as such, fermented from clear juice with minimal skin contact, bottled pale, dry, and nervously understated. Except that this definition is about as helpful as calling a Samurai’s Katana “just another knife”.
The grape itself has pink skins, visually closer to Pinot Gris than to anything grown in Chablis. Phenolics are vanishingly low, which means even the more adventurous skin contact experiments tend to produce texture rather than tannin. Alcohol levels remain modest, acidity is clean rather than bracing, and the wines seem almost allergic to excess.
If you are looking for volume, ripeness, or swagger, Koshu will not oblige, but whisper instead. Citrus peel rather than citrus fruit. White peach rather than nectarine. Pear skin, green apple, yuzu, sometimes a saline or mineral note that feels more like an echo than a statement. Oak, when used at all, is handled with such restraint that it barely leaves fingerprints. Many producers avoid it entirely, aware that even a hint of wood risks overwhelming the grape’s naturally soft spoken character.
This is where Western tasting frameworks start to wobble. Koshu is deeply unimpressive as a solo glass. Put it in a blind tasting lineup designed around aromatic impact and it will almost certainly finish last, looking faintly embarrassed by the attention. Judge it by Western standards of varietal typicity and it seems incomplete.
Then you put food on the table and everything snaps into focus.
Koshu is not a wine built to be admired, but to behave. Japanese cuisine, with its obsession with umami and balance, has a remarkable ability to make loud wines look clumsy. High alcohol, oak driven whites and fruit forward styles often trip over sashimi, tempura, or lightly grilled fish. Koshu does not. Low phenolics avoid metallic clashes with seafood. Acidity refreshes without cutting. Fruit stays in the background where it belongs in this culinary context.
Sushi, sashimi, tempura, grilled fish, vegetable driven dishes, this is Koshu’s natural habitat. It also performs quietly well with modern Japanese and pan Asian cooking that values restraint over heat. Expecting it to handle rich sauces or aggressive spice is missing the point.
In recent years, Koshu has been gently pushed out of its comfort zone. Sparkling versions sharpen its citrus and saline edges. Amphora ageing adds texture without weight. Skin contact expressions introduce a subtle grip and herbal complexity while stopping well short of orange wine theatrics. These styles are interesting, but they all remain firmly within Koshu’s core philosophy of understatement.
Koshu’s biggest challenge is not quality but expectation. It refuses to shout, and refuses to perform tricks in the glass. In a global wine culture obsessed with power, it feels almost subversive. So yes, Koshu is a white wine in the Western sense. It sits in the white wine category, ticks all the technical boxes, and behaves exactly as it should. But philosophically, it is something else entirely. It is a wine that prioritises harmony over expression and usefulness over ego.
Main Producers & Labels:
All of these producers grow Koshu in Yamanashi’s volcanic soils and cool mountain-influenced climate, which give the wines their characteristic freshness, subtle citrus tones, and food-friendly acidity.
-
Grace Wine – Grace Koshu (multiple cuvées)
One of the benchmark producers of Koshu, Grace Wine has been a leader in Japanese wine for over a century and is widely regarded as a standard-bearer for this variety. Their Grace Koshu is pale, refined, and effortless at the table, with subtle citrus and mineral notes that show what this grape can do at its best.
-
Suntory Tomi no Oka – Tomi Koshu
The Koshu bottlings from Suntory’s Tomi no Oka estate have gained serious critical attention internationally. Their Tomi Koshu was awarded Best in Show at the Decanter World Wine Awards, striking a balance of elegance and purity that highlights the finesse of the grape.
-
Kurambon Wine – N Koshu / N Blanc
A smaller, artisanal family winery with a strong focus on biodynamic and minimal-intervention winemaking. Their N Koshu (often wild-yeast fermented and barrel-aged) is a deeper, more textured expression, while their unoaked, crisp versions showcase Koshu’s light, fresh side.
-
Château Mercian – Koshu & Special Labels
Château Mercian is one of the longest-established Japanese wine houses and has been important in getting Koshu recognition domestically and abroad. Their Château Mercian Koshu bottlings demonstrate classic, food-driven style with delicate fruit and minerality.
-
Marufuji – Rubaiyat Koshu (Barrel-Aged and Sur Lie styles)
Marufuji’s Rubaiyat Koshu range includes both traditional stainless steel ferments and barrel-aged or sur lie styles, offering a broader palette of expression. From pure and light to rounder, textural wines that still retain Koshu’s signature restraint.
Honourable mentions: Katsunuma Jyozo Winery, Morita Koshu Winery (Chanmoris), Fujiclair Koshu, and boutique producers like 98 Wines.

by lspeed | Jan 18, 2026 | WINES: UNCORKING THE MYSTERY
We live and work in Phuket / Thailand, where for the past 14 years we operate a highly successful Latino steakhouse. Our daily reality revolves around fire, beef, and smoke, not fish sauce, basil, and spicy chilli. Still, being in Thailand means that some guests occasionally ask for a few well known Thai dishes, so we keep a small selection on the menu to be accommodating.
This not being our core business, it’s where things become interesting. Pairing Thai food with wine is, without exaggeration, a sommelier’s nightmare. Thai cuisine refuses to behave – sweet, sour, salty, spicy, and herbal notes arrive simultaneously, often with added funk from fish sauce or shrimp paste. This complexity leaves very little room for error.
The classic steakhouse wine pairing instinct of matching weight with weight, or protein with tannin collapses immediately. As a result, most diners make the very sensible choice of opting for still water, or one of Thailand’s iconic beers such as Chang or Singha. Others take the more adventurous route of reaching for local “whiskies” like Saeng Som or Mekong, overlooking that these are closer to rum than to anything a Scottish or Kentucky distillery would recognise or condone.
Wine pairing, however, is not entirely off the table. It just demands restraint, humility (as we learned the hard way), and a willingness to abandon power in favour of balance. Used carefully, some combinations can work out because they calm the heat, mirror the complex aromatics, and respect acidity instead of trying to dominate it.
With these caveats in mind, some pairings could well look like this.
• Pad Thai (Sweet Sour Fried Noodles) – Chenin Blanc
Moderate sweetness and fresh acidity help tame tamarind, palm sugar, and lime without flattening the dish.
• Som Tum (Green Papaya Salad) – Moscato d’Asti
Low alcohol, gentle fizz, and fruit sweetness act as a natural counterweight to chilli and fish sauce.
• Tom Yum (Hot Sour Soup) – Sauvignon Blanc
Bright acidity and herbal notes echo lemongrass and kaffir lime, creating a measure of alignment rather than full on conflict.
• Larb (Spicy Minced Meat Salad) – Grenache
Juicy red fruit and low tannin suit minced meat, herbs, and citrus while keeping spice in check.
• Green Curry – Malbec
This only works when coconut richness outweighs heat, but softer Malbec styles can complement the dish well.
• Pad Krapow (Spicy Thai Basil Stir Fry) – Red Burgundy
Pinot Noir’s perfume and light structure handle basil and garlic far better than heavier reds ever could.
• Massaman Curry – Gewürztraminer
Aromatic intensity and gentle sweetness align with warm spices, peanuts, and slow cooked meat.
• Pad See Ew (Spicy Stir-Fried Noodles) – Primitivo or Zinfandel
Sweet soy and caramelised flavours benefit from ripe fruit and moderate alcohol.
• Mango Sticky Rice – Sauternes
When dessert meets dessert, honeyed richness mirrors coconut cream and ripe mango beautifully.
Speaking of Sauternes – a few years we decided to experiment a little too confidently. A beach, a diverse and spicy Thai meal, and a bottle of truly top shelf Sauternes sounded romantic and clever at the time. The result was a disaster, because the wine’s complexity was crushed, the food felt clumsy, and the pairing achieved the rare feat of making both taste worse. It taught us humility, and that while experience is the key, it also has its pitfalls.
Context matters too – chilli level, sugar balance, and kitchen style can shift a pairing from pleasant to painful in seconds. This is why Thai food remains one of the toughest challenges for wine professionals. The margin for error is narrow, and the punishment for getting it wrong is harsh and immediate.
In our setting as a Latino steakhouse, we therefore treat Thai dishes as guests, not hosts. When wine works, it is a pleasant surprise for guests and us alike. When it does not, beer and water are the intelligent ad respectable choices. Sometimes, the best pairing decision is knowing when wine should politely step aside and let the food speak for itself.

by lspeed | Dec 31, 2025 | DECODING GRAPES: FROM VINES TO VINTAGE
Winemakers do not abandon grapes because they make bad wine, but because they are awkward. They ripen late, yield little, demand explanations, or refuse to charm the drinker in the first ten seconds. In an industry built on recognisable flavour and predictable behaviour, those traits are not endearing, but commercial liabilities. The grapes below survive not because they are easy, but because a handful of growers have decided that difficulty is not a crime.
Red Wine Grapes
Pineau d’Aunis: Loire Valley, France
Pineau d’Aunis is the master of understatement. Pale in colour, it politely lowers expectations and then immediately ignores them. Aromatically it is all white pepper, rose petal, cranberry and savoury tension, behaving far better at the table than its looks would suggest. This is not a wine for analysis paralysis, but a companion to grilled meat, smoke and fat.
Its long standing issue has never been quality but optics. Low yields and modest colour kept it from competing with darker and louder neighbours. Today it survives largely thanks to producers like Domaine Bellivière and Domaine de la Taille aux Loups, who continue to plant it out of belief rather than demand. Pineau d’Aunis is not disappearing yet, but it does require someone to choose it on purpose.
Persan: Savoie and Isère, France
Persan nearly vanished because it asked growers to work harder for less applause. Late ripening, low yielding and structurally serious, it was replaced by more cooperative varieties without much debate. Which is unfortunate, because Persan delivers exactly what mountain vineyards promise but rarely manage. Depth without weight, tannin without aggression, and acidity that understands food.
The modern revival owes much to Domaine des Ardoisières, whose alpine bottlings gave Persan credibility again, and to producers like Domaine Alphonse Grisard, who quietly prove it can age with dignity. Persan now lives in that narrow economic middle ground where conviction matters more than momentum.
Mouhtaro: Central Greece
Mouhtaro is often described as rescued, which is accurate but slightly misleading, because it implies weakness rather than seriousness. In reality, Mouhtaro produces dark fruited, savoury wines with structure and ageing potential. It is neither rustic nor glossy modern, and simply does the job without fuss.
Estate Samartzis has been central in defining its contemporary identity, while Vourvoukeli Estate offers a slightly more polished interpretation. Mouhtaro is not in immediate danger, but its footprint remains tight. Its future depends less on trends and more on sustained interest in indigenous Greek reds.
St Laurent: Austria
St Laurent suffers from being called Pinot Noir’s cousin, which is like describing a dry aged ribeye as a hamburger upgrade. The comparison sets expectations the grape has no intention of meeting. St Laurent is darker, spicier and more brooding, with cherry, cocoa and forest floor notes, and a slightly feral edge in youth.
It is widely planted and entirely secure in Austria, championed by producers such as Heinrich and Johanneshof Reinisch. Its problem is not survival but neglect. Internationally it remains overshadowed by grapes with louder marketing. St Laurent is not disappearing but waiting to be judged on its own terms.
Baga: Bairrada, Portugal
Baga built its reputation during a period when extraction was considered a personality trait. High tannin, high acidity and no interest in early charm made it an easy scapegoat. In capable hands, however, Baga becomes one of Iberia’s most compelling reds. Savoury, structured and quietly long lived.
Luis Pato set the benchmark decades ago, while Filipa Pato has done more than anyone to rehabilitate the grape without sanding off its edges. Bairrada does not function without Baga, and its issue is not survival but lingering prejudice.
White Wine Grapes
Timorasso: Piedmont, Italy
Timorasso should make producers of expensive white Burgundy mildly uncomfortable. Textural, mineral and quietly powerful, it ages effortlessly and performs superbly at the table. Its near extinction now looks like a collective lapse in judgement.
Walter Massa is the reason Timorasso exists in any meaningful way today. Without him, it would likely be a historical footnote. Producers such as Vietti have since helped bring it wider attention. Timorasso is no longer endangered. The risk now is dilution rather than disappearance.
Savagnin: Jura, France
Savagnin is often described as difficult, which is polite shorthand for uninterested in being charming. Whether topped up or oxidative, it delivers umami, grip and structural authority that few white grapes can match. It does not perform but expects you to pay attention.
Domaine Tissot and Domaine Jean Macle continue to define its range and longevity. Savagnin is protected by appellation rules and regional pride. Culturally and legally it is safe, and its only real vulnerability is being misunderstood.
Dry Furmint: Tokaj, Hungary
Furmint is famous but trapped by its success in sweet wine. Dry Furmint is something else entirely. Taut, mineral and transparent to site, it ages with precision and restraint. One of Central Europe’s great white grapes, quietly operating outside the spotlight or influencer babble.
Istvan Szepsy produces reference examples, while Kiralyudvar demonstrates its stylistic range. Furmint is not going anywhere, and Tokaj as a region depends on it. The problem is not survival, but recognition.
Assyrtiko: Mainland Greece
Santorini dominates the narrative, but mainland Assyrtiko deserves equal respect. Linear, saline and precise, it handles heat, smoke and seafood without theatrics.
Gaia Estate and Ktima Gerovassiliou have shown that Assyrtiko does not require volcanic drama to be compelling. The grape is expanding. The risk here is not extinction, but sameness.
Silvaner: Old Vine Germany
Silvaner’s greatest weakness is subtlety. Old vine examples deliver texture, savoury depth and quiet authority, particularly at the table. They do not shout, which in modern wine culture is a strategic error.
Weingut Rudolf May and Weingut Am Stein remain committed advocates. Silvaner as a grape is safe. Old vine Silvaner is less guaranteed, its future resting on whether growers choose patience over replacement.
Final Harvest
Wine grapes survive not because they become famous, but because they are poured, understood and valued. The ones that vanish rarely fail in the glass, and most of these grapes are not dying. They are simply losing the argument at the wine shop shelf. You ca help change that.
